Tight / square. Moderate wear to bottom half of front cover and back cover next to spine (see scans). Small dent at left middle of front cover next to spine. Age-tanning is definitely less than average for its vintage. No stamps, marks or writing.

Edited by Frederik Pohl; Judy-Lynn Benjamin is Associate editor. Fandom column by Lin Carter. With Pohl at the helm (who also edited the sister magazines Galaxy and Worlds of Tomorrow), the lineup of authors is starting to look like a "Who's Who" of SF. Niven's "Neutron Star" from the October, 1966 issue is the 1967 Short Story winner (and the first of 6 "Known Space" stories in a span of 7 issues.) This is the second of 3 consecutive years that IF wins the Hugo award for "best magazine" (in 1966, 1967 and 1968 - each for the previous year.)
